'The EVERY Company,' the American biotechnology company founded in 2014, has debuted its proprietary animal-free egg whites in the United States. The egg whites are not available for general purchase and instead have been debuted as part of a special edition line of macaron treats. The EVERY Company partnered with 'Chantal Guillon,' a French bakery based in San Francisco, to launch the macaron line.

The EVERY Company's animal-free egg whites are created through a process that involves engineering yeast to produce proteins that are similar to those found in real chicken eggs. The resulting animal-free egg whites, according to The EVERY Company, function nearly identically to traditional eggs. These egg whites can be [used in omelets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frozen-omelettes), [in baking](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/egg-n-easy-plus), and in most recipes that call for eggs.
